Levoit Vital Pet Pro Targets Pet Hair, Dander and Odors
Levoit's $189.99 Vital Pet Pro targets fur, dander and odors with three-stage filtration, automated cleaning, app modes and color air alerts for pet homes.
Summary
Levoit’s $189.99 Vital Pet Pro, available as of September 26, 2026, targets pet households with three-stage filtration. Its washable pre-filter captures hair, the main filter traps smaller particles and dander, and an odor filter contains 140 grams of activated carbon. A U-shaped inlet is designed to capture airborne fur, improve airflow and reduce clogging. Levoit claims the purifier can remove up to 70% of odors within one hour.
Testing over a little more than a week found strong fur and debris collection and noticeably fresher air, although the 70% claim was not independently verified. Automatic cleaning transfers pre-filter buildup into a removable tray. Auto Plus Mode adjusts performance as air quality changes, while Pet Mode runs at maximum speed for 15 minutes, then lower speed for 60 minutes to limit noise and energy use. Red, orange, green and cyan lights indicate bad, moderate, good and very good air instead of numerical readings. The unit is larger than expected and audible at full speed, but lower settings are quiet enough overnight, with Sleep Mode for light sleepers. It is sold through Levoit, Amazon, Chewy and other retailers.
